“Brazilian Carnaval 2007 at the Queen Mary - The Culture of Brazil Rocks this Historical Boat!”
- Takeisha Rayson, LA Splash Magazine
"…at its splendid best, Saturday's Brazilian Carnaval was a faithful replica of the real thing."
-Ernesto Lechner, Los Angeles Times
''...Brazilian Carnaval" took over on Saturday night to celebrate with a wildly extravagant music party...Hot, hot samba on a chilly L.A. evening... ... the sequined and feathered Made in Brazil dancers, vigorously demonstrating the correct way to do the samba...
- Don Heckman, Los Angeles Times
"... Samba, batucada, percussion... the Brazilian energy is back to reaffirm the bonds of multiculturalism...espectacular, and colourful presentation of the musical Brazilian culture in the city of Los Angeles..."
- Jose Fuentes, Salinas, La Opinion
"Carnaval 2003 brings out thousands, and reaffirms its universal appeal to the celebration of life... Carnaval came to Los Angeles last Saturday, and judging strictly by the multitudes of cheering, jumping fans that came out to see and hear three bands perform the music of Brazil that so many around the world have come to love, it was an enormous success"
- Gary Walker, Weekly Press L.A.
"Brazilian Carnaval 2003 An Absolute Smash!...
